The most important thing for an IS auditor to look for in a project feasibility study is an assessment of whether the expected benefits can be achieved. A project feasibility study is a preliminary analysis that evaluates the viability and suitability of a proposed project based on various criteria, such as technical, economic, legal, operational, and social factors. The expected benefits are the positive outcomes and value that the project aims to deliver to the organization and its stakeholders. The IS auditor should verify whether the project feasibility study has clearly defined and quantified the expected benefits, and whether it has assessed the likelihood and feasibility of achieving them within the project scope, budget, schedule, and quality parameters. The other options are also important for an IS auditor to look for in a project feasibility study, but not as important as an assessment of whether the expected benefits can be achieved, because they either focus on specific aspects of the project rather than the overall value proposition, or they assume that the project will be implemented rather than evaluating its viability.
